"This is music by my great hero, the Paraguayan guitarist and composer, Augustin Barrios. It is also the soundtrack to my early childhood spent on a council estate just outside Brighton, England. The number 26 bus took me to my guitar lessons each week but my guitar took me to Paraguay, at first im my dreams but eventually in reality. For this album I have chosen a selection of my favourite Barrios pieces. This is the music of a true Paraguayan genius. I am a respectful and thankful Englishman." (Richard Durrant, 2011)
